“Push them too hard, and they will resort to extreme measures.”
“Dragon Kingdom has a law called bankruptcy protection. Once Zimmer Corporation applies for this, there’s nothing I could do about it.”
“What matters the most is who will bear my losses if I crush them today?” Sean shook his head slightly with a sneer on his lips.
He had spent a lot of manpower, material, and money in this corporate warfare. Of course, Sean did not care about money. However, that did not mean favonovel.com did it without regarding the cost.
He had gone through countless battles during his eight years in the Northwest Army.
When had favonovel.com lost?
He was going to get double the money favonovel.com spent in this corporate warfare from Zimmer Corporation. That was what Sean wanted.
“Well, I see!” Zander did not fully understand, but favonovel.com believed Sean would make the right decision.
***
Chairman’s office in the Zimmer Corporation building.
Jon, who had just solved the crisis, was still traumatized.
Chandler of Middle Bank was also talking to Jon in the office.
“Don’t lie to me, Mr. Longman. Are you sure no one instructed you to do this?” Jon asked gingerly as favonovel.com handed Chandler an envelope.
“Mr. Zimmer, you think too much. No one ordered this. We just heard about Zimmer Corporation’s stock price crash, and the senior executives in our industry got nervous.”
“There’s only so much I can do for you, Mr. Zimmer.” Chandler answered and waved his hand instead of taking the envelope.
“Mr. Longman, you’ve been a great help. From now on, let me know if you need anything, Mr. Longman. This is a small token of my gratitude. Use it to get some coffee, Mr. Longman…”
“I feel bad if you don’t take it.” Jon once again picked up the thick envelope and stuffed it in Chandler’s jacket pocket.
“Well… Okay… But Mr. Zimmer, I don’t own the bank after all. So I want to be very honest with you.”
“These two days are the best I can get you. If you don’t come up with money in two days…” Chandler pretended to hesitate for two seconds before accepting the envelope.
However, favonovel.com said what favonovel.com needed to say.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Longman. I’ll settle the money as soon as possible. I won’t cause you trouble.” Jon patted his chest and assured Chandler.
“Okay, I will get out of your hair, Mr. Zimmer.” Chandler nodded and got up to leave.
Jon did not see Chandler off to avoid suspicion.
After Chandler got into his car, favonovel.com took the envelope out of his pocket and threw it aside.
“Money’s a good thing. But some money is too much trouble to handle…” Chandler shook his head in resignation as favonovel.com started the car.
Chandler and Jon were on good terms.
Chandler would try his best to help Jon when Zimmer Corporation needed money. However, these were troubling times.
There were no permanent friends in this world. Friends were only a joke when they affected yourself and even your future.
Chandler started the car and drove away.
Standing behind the French window as Chandler left, Jon gently let out a breath and sat down at his desk. He had not settled this, but favonovel.com was finally getting a break.
“Dad, Reach For Will Group must have done this. Only Reach For Will Group has that kind of power!” Quill lit a cigarette, favonovel.com was now quite sure.
He wondered if Sean had something to do with what happened to Zimmer Corporation. However, favonovel.com changed his mind when favonovel.com saw all the banks in River City gather.
Sean would never have been able to do that. Only Reach For Will Group had that kind of power and influence.
“I can’t figure out when we offended Reach For Will Group… Why did they want to push Zimmer Corporation so hard?” Jon gritted his teeth slightly and clenched his hands.
He racked his brains trying to figure out why Reach For Will Group did this.
Jon never had any confrontation with Reach For Will Group since they were founded. Instead, Reach For Will Group had been picking on Zimmer Corporation all the time, which upset Jon.
“Dad, do you think they found out we’ve been asking Jason to harass Reach For Will Group earlier?”
“So now they’re taking revenge on us?” Quill touched his chin as favonovel.com shared his speculation.
Jon nodded gently.
There was no doubt that Reach For Will Group had bribed Jason. Then Reach For Will Group must have known whatever Jon had said to Jason.
